  1. Whoever picked the team is the 1st to be blamed surely, I have always advocated an x rider as a team manager, but there few good managers around wo have ridden a bike, so it must come down to knowledge, and yet again the person who selected the manager. As for middlecaged has beens, GREG HANCOCK to you.
  2. Anyone with 'Taffys Time Machine' on his bike that rides at Workington, always do well, well ridden Liam
  3. On a side note, as Liam Carr is a Berwick asset, didn't he do well on Sat guesting at Workington. Won his reserve race. 3....!+1....1....0 = 5 +1
  4. I was asked to point out on the forum by members of the management, that no team member will be missing this weekend. I personally didn't see many new faces on Sat, have to take your word for that. In saying that could not have been much more than 500 on Saturday, so if your point is correct a new face only replaces one that has departed, Or could it be someone was too idle to take them down A lot to do with the track being prepared to suit our riders, they love it and because of that they are all on a high, I for one am seriously pleased lessons have been learnt.
  5. The whole of UK speedway needs a drastic overhaul, the fault lies squarely with the promoters, without any exception, as I see nobody shouting for change.
  6. You are a perfect example of my point, unless in work you are at Shielfield and recording the GP
  7. That is a perfect bit of 'wishful thinking', probably unlikely most come to speedway and record the GP
  8. I would have, with David generally every one new his commitments, as for Matej I don't think Czech authorities would have called him back, except for the fact he is riding so well for The Bandits. So many good young Czechs coming through the ranks, Eduard Kracmar, Ronan Ceska, Znek Holub etc etc.
  9. From my point of view my willie is big, but how big compared to someone elses. Not counting kids I reckon about 1000
  10. I would like to keep, Vissing but probably go back to Edinburgh, then Jensen, Kus and Bellego ? bit of an inigma this season though, add in Nicky Barrett, then find two new riders. Too early to be talking 2015 yet, but you are right changes will be needed
  11. Big name in the sense of the PL, or should I have said a higher point No1 around the 9 average, it invariably leaves you with journeymen in the middle order, so you have to rely on your No1 and your 2 reserves, any injuries from those 3 or 1 has bad night, you are in the DOO DOO
  12. If you are running with a No1, you need the best 2 reserves in the league, those 2 don't really cut the mustard for me. I have always prefered a team in depth, so far this season it has worked out just right. I the last 5 years the club has gone for a big name No1 and we have nearly always ended up in the bottom end of the league.
  13. Being on the telly , a big draw. £10 will have helped. One off advertising of event. Fairly local derby, bringing in a good Edinburgh backing. I reckon half the crowd were Monarchs
  14. Forgot to say, PLEASE PLEASE no more cat strangling bands If you want that type of stuff, be respectful and remember Berwick upon Tweed is in Northumberland, so bring along The Kathryn Tickel band on the Northumbrian pipes.
  15. No one more proud than me of what Matej is achieving
  16. Good guests, probably not as good as our own two though, lets hope it's enough to hold off the 2nd strongest team in the league
  17. Dunno about flags, as long the tractors we use are set up properly, and they continue to improve on all of the previous mistakes on track preperation. perhaps a lick of paint in The Billy livery would be an improvement esthetically.
  18. Berwick Rangers produce a basic fixture poster for each month, black print on a gold/ yellow background, it is pretty well everywhere at no major cost. Thats all it needs on a week by week basis.
  19. I think Screm was making a very simple point, if it is good enough for Sky Sports, then it's regular playing fans deserve the same each and every week. Nothing dim about it.
